  1. For a like-for-like battery replacement, coding may not be necessary. However, if the new battery differs from the original, coding might be required.
  2. Hi guys i did have the same problem with my skoda octavia and it was keboda led module square shape, dont remember part number right now but I did order from https://xenons4u.co.uk and it did resolve my issue cheers!
  3. Hello! It's not uncommon to experience changes in ride quality when fitting new tires. If you've replaced all four tires with Hankook Ventus V12 Evo, and the ride feels harder or less compliant than before, there could be a few reasons for this: Tire Pressure: Ensure that the tire pressure is set according to the manufacturer's recommended specifications. Overinflated tires can lead to a stiffer ride. Tire Type: Different tire models and brands can have varying ride characteristics. The Hankook Ventus V12 Evo might have different ride properties compared to the previous Hankook and Kumho combination. Tire Tread: The tread pattern and depth can affect ride comfort. Some tire designs prioritize performance over comfort. Suspension: The condition of your car's suspension components can also impact the ride. Worn-out shocks or struts may make the ride feel harsher. Break-in Period: New tires may require a short break-in period to fully adjust and optimize their performance and comfort. To potentially soften the ride, you could try: Checking Tire Pressure: Make sure all four tires are inflated to the correct pressure as specified in your vehicle's manual. Give It Some Time: Sometimes, new tires need some miles to settle in and provide a smoother ride. Suspension Inspection: Consider having your car's suspension components checked by a mechanic to ensure they are in good condition. Please keep in mind that different people have varying perceptions of ride comfort, and what feels harder or softer to one person might differ from another's experience.
  4. Hello! I'd be happy to help explain how e-Tec (mild hybrid) systems work in cars. In e-Tec mild hybrid systems, the 12V battery is responsible for powering various auxiliary components in the vehicle, such as lights, infotainment system, and other electronics. The main engine starting is indeed done using the 48V battery system, which is typically connected to an electric motor or integrated starter generator (ISG). If your car's 12V battery is dead or very weak, it can potentially cause some issues with starting the vehicle or powering the electronics. In such cases, the 48V battery system might not be enough to start the engine, as it is primarily designed to assist the engine during acceleration and provide some additional power for efficiency improvements. As for generating the 12V power in the car, it can be done in a few ways. Some e-Tec systems use a DC-DC converter, similar to Toyota's hybrid technology, which steps down the voltage from the 48V battery to 12V to charge the smaller battery. Others may still use a traditional alternator connected to the internal combustion engine to charge the 12V battery. In any case, it's essential to ensure the 12V battery is in good condition to avoid any potential starting or electrical issues. Regular maintenance and checking the battery's health can help prevent such problems. I hope this clarifies how e-Tec (mild hybrid) systems work and how the 12V battery is involved in the process. If you have any more questions or need further information, feel free to ask!
